Grandchildren of Stephen II edit

Dear @SebbeKg, the next sentence is not quite clear to me: "This Pannonian, seeking refuge in Poland, fabricated stories about persecution by King Béla II of Hungary, who demanded unjustified punishment for those who supported the grandchildren of Stephen II of Hungary." Stephen II had no issue, that is why, he was succeeded by his cousin, Béla II in 1131. Does Długosz say anything more about this fabricated thing?

Hello @Norden1990 Sorry for my mistake Jan Dlugosz meant the descendants of Stephen I and I inattentively marked Stephen II. My mistake but thanks for pointing it out.
Here is the entire mention of these fabrications which were made by this Panonian: ''So this Panonian, having fled to Poland to Prince Boleslaw, lies that he suffered many wrongs from King Bela of Hungary for having strenuously supported his grandsons, sons of the once deceased King Stephen, that Bela finally deprived him of all the property he had in Hungary and would have sentenced him to death had he not fled earlier.''

@Norden1990, You must also keep in mind that this Panonian was a mere liar hired by the Ruthenian prince Volodymyrko, so he was probably not even related to the Hungarian monarch and only won the trust of the Polish king through efficient manipulation.
